I've never had nits , and son has never had them either. I've never actually seen them but would have feaked out if I'd have seen anything crawling on his head! I remember the nit nurse paying regular visits to the school in the 60's , as well as one who checked feet for verruccas (I did have a massive one of them, caught in the brine baths, and was so embarassing when the nurse pointed it out in front of the whole class. Had to have a big hole dug in my foot in a little old building in Tipping Street. )I was at school through the '60s and early '70s, nobody ever had nits.
Does always worry me if any customers in the hairdressers before me had nits as I've never seen the brushes and combs being cleaned between clients
